Administration
The area around Nankana Sahib was formerly a tehsil of Sheikhupura District. In May 2005, the Punjab government decided to raise the status of Nankana Sahib to that of a district as a way of promoting development in the area, and investment from Indian Sikhs.
Nankana Sahib District is administratively subdivided into three tehsils. These are:
- Nankana Sahib
- Sangla Hill
- Shahkot
On 1 December 2008 Safdarabad was reattached to Sheikhupura District.
